Ordinary Girl: Chapter 8 - It's a...
RACHEL'S POV:
"I've gathered you all here today to share something that is long overdue but given the complexity of the situation the secrecy was highly necessary-"
"Get on with it woman!" Santana yells as her, Brittany, and Kurt all sit on my couch. Quinn is out job hunting with Noah so I figured the best time to tell everybody about my pregnancy would be now. My best friend gives her a look and the Latina sighs. "I'm sorry, I meant 'please tell us. We're dying to know.' Seriously though, get on with it. I wants to get my mack on B."
The daft blonde smiles. "Aw, S, you're so sweet."
Kurt fake gags beside them and I gather their attention again. "As you all know Quinn is special. You're all aware of her co-"
"Cock?" Santana fills in for me. "Yeah. We know and you're her little cock whore. What about it?"
I clear my throat. "I was going to say condition but thank you, Santana."
Kurt rolls his eyes at the older girl. "Must you be so vulgar?"
She scoffs. "Must you be so gay?"
Now he scoffs. "Must you?"
"Okay!" I say rather loudly. "Santana while I appreciate you not telling the school about Quinn's condition nor trying to figure out if she's bigger than my brother I need you to hush."
She rolls her brown eyes. "I don't want your girl, Berry. Besides I figure that Quinn can't be packing that much if she's wearing that uniform skirt around all the time."
A small subtle smirk spreads over my face. If only she knew. "Actually she's packing a rather large amount."
Kurt gasps, Brittany looks confused and Santana looks impressed. "And what's big to you? Five inches?"
"Actually I'd say eight and a half."
The Latina smirks. "Who knew you had it in you."
Kurt claps his hands together. "Can we not do this?" He asks. "You told us this was urgent."
"Right. This is important you guys. Actually, it's more than important. It's life changing and dear God people are going to think I'm a slut when they find out."
They all look confused. "Did Quinn give you something?"
"No." Then a think. "Well, sort of but not... not an STD or anything. She actually gave me a good thing. Well, actually that depends on how you look at-"
"Rachel." Brittany says calmly. "Breathe."
I take a deep breath. "I'm pregnant."
Just then Quinn walks through the door, Noah right behind her. "I've got a job, baby!" When she sees everyone sitting across from me in shock she freezes. "Who died?"
QUINN'S POV:
"Here." Rachel hands me an ice pack to put over my eye as I lay in her bed. We've been spending the night with one another most the time, switching from her house to mine once a week. Tonight, however, I have a black eye. Any guess who it's from? Santana Lopez that's who! She went crazy on my ass once she found out I 'knocked up, Berry' her words not mine. "I can't believe she punched you." The diva informs me.
I laugh softly as I hold the ice on my bruising eye. "At least now you know she kind of cares about you."
My girlfriend giggles as she crawls on her bed next to me in a grey off the shoulder sweater and pink panties. "Kind of being the key word." We sit in comfortable silence before she breaks it. "When do you start your job at Breadstix?"
That's right; I'm a working girl now. I decided that I won't have my parents providing everything for MY baby so I got a job as a waitress. The pay isn't great but at least I know that I'm doing all I can for my child. "Friday."
She pouts. "That's date night."
I lean down and peck the pout off her lips. "Well I'm free after work. Got any plans."
The diva pretends to think. "Yeah, I've a got date with this sexy blonde." I just roll my eyes, smiling.
My eyes scan over her small body, knowing that my baby is inside her. We got ultrasound pictures the other day and we heard the heart beat for the first time. Even though the baby looks like a tiny peanut right now I still can't help but be amazed that I have a child on the way. I bring my hand over and gently stroke her flat tummy as she lies down. "It is weird that I already love our baby?"
Her brown eyes sparkle and she shakes her head. "No. I do too." She says before putting her own hand on her tummy. "Will you still like me when I'm big?"
A laugh escapes me. "Baby, of course I'll still love you." My eyes widen when I realize what I said.
"What!" Rachel asks, jaw dropped.
I swallow thickly and shut my eyes tight before opening them again. "I just... Well I-"
"You love me?"
I chew on my bottom lip and sigh. "Rach, this isn't how I wanted to inform you. I mean this is all happening so fast and this is all so new to me. I just didn't-"
The brunette cuts me off with a kiss and if it weren't for my bruised eye it would be perfect. "I love you too."
Actually, even with my bruised eye it is perfect.
3 Month Later...
"God does Glee club really last this long?" I ask my best friend as me, him, and Santana all wait by my car. Both cheer and football practice is over and glee is still not out yet.
The mohawked boy laughs and throws his football up in the air. "I guess so." I check my phone to look at the time. "What time is Rachel's doctor appointment?"
"Five." I inform him. "And it's almost 4:45. I understand she's a diva and everything but she can't be fashionably late to a doctor's appointment." Puck laughs. "It's not funny! We've already at to re-schedule once because she spent half an hour crying in the car."
He just shakes his head, laughing harder. "At least now you know not to get Rachel pregnant again."
Santana laughs. "God help all of us if that happens."
It's been three months since the reality of having a baby as a teenager has hit it, two months since me and Rachel made our relationship public to the school, one month since Santana has become my friend and three hours since I've seen my girlfriend. Basically some stuff has happened but not much at the same time. Since me and Rachel went public with our oh so obvious relationship there has been a few people who give us dirty looks but other than that everything is fine. However, I know that once Rachel really starts showing then the rumor mill will be out to try to ruin my relationship and say that the diva has been cheating on me, which, is not true. As for the whole Quintana friendship it's a funny story actually. After she gave me a black eye I saw that she was actually capable of caring for someone we became friends. To my surprise she actually cares a lot about Brittany and them not making their relationship public isn't just about the Latina's family but about protecting Brittany as well. She's actually a good person.
I notice my girlfriend walking towards me with a skip in her step, her two besties lugging behind her. "Hi, baby!" She greets me, wrapping her arms around my neck and kissing my lips quickly. "I missed you."
"Dear God, woman!" Kurt steps in. "It's been three hours."
Brittany hits his arm lightly. "I think it's cute how attached you are to each other." She says to us before hugging Santana and linking their pinkies together.
Now I'm smiling as I hold my tiny girlfriends waist. "Thanks, Britt." To my surprise I've actually grown close to the daft blonde and well dressed boy since they found out about Rachel's pregnancy. "We've got to get going, baby or we're going to be late."
The tiny brunette smiles. "We find out the gender today!" She announces to the four people closest to us.
Kurt squeals and claps his hands together. "I hope it's a girl!"
Puck shakes his head. "Nah, dude it's totally a boy."
Rachel rolls her eyes but keeps smiling. "Well one of you is wrong." She says before leaning up and kissing me. I smile against her lips and kiss her back, cupping her cheek.
"Quinn!" Puck yells, causing me to pull away and glare at him.
"What, Puckerman?"
He taps his watch. "Oh! Right!"
"He is taking forever." I complain as me and Rachel sit in the exam room waiting for Dr. Sam to show up. "Seriously we've been waiting for twenty minutes. How busy can he be?"
Rachel lies back on the exam bed. "Obviously very." She doesn't seem her.
I furrow my eyebrows and kiss her hand. "Is everything okay?" When she doesn't reply I know something is up. "What's wrong?" Still no answer. "Come on, Rach. What's going on in that pretty little head of yours?"
Finally her brown eyes descend into mine and she's chewing on her bottom lip. "What if something is wrong?"
I kiss her hand again and look up at her. "Baby don't think like that." I tell her. "Everything is fine."
She looks at me. "What if it's not?" I go to say something but she cuts me off. "No, seriously. We haven't been to the doctor in a while and what if something happened to the baby?"
Shaking my head I grab both of her hands and lean my forehead against hers. "The baby is perfect." I inform but and when she tries to cut me off I don't allow it. "No. Our baby is healthy and perfect. Do you want to know how I know that?" The brunette nods softly as I slide a hand down over her small baby bump. "Because I can feel it." There's still a hint of doubt in her eyes. Over the last few months her hormones have been driving me wild in more ways than one but I like to think I've gotten pretty good at dealing with them. "You've made such a great home for him or her that they have no choice but to be perfect."
The diva smiles softly and holds my face. "You're perfect."
A grin graces itself over my face before I bump noses with her. "Not as perfect as my girlfriend."
Before our mush fest is over Dr. Sam enters and shakes both of our hands. "Sorry for the wait, ladies." He says before looking at my girlfriend. "How are you feeling today, Rachel?"
She shrugs. "I've been having some weird cravings since my pregnancy."
He waves it off she lays down on the exam bed. "That's perfectly normal."
The brunette shakes her head. "No. I'm vegan and I've been craving meat." She clarifies.
Dr. Sam fights a laugh. "That's perfectly normal too. Certain things appeal to women while they're pregnant and sometimes they can't stomach to eat anything else but what they're craving." Rachel cringes. "I'm not saying that will happen to you but if you can't stomach anything else I advise you to eat what the baby wants you to. If you're completely against it, however, you can get protein pills from the pharmacy. Sometimes women can't stomach those either."
The diva glares at me playfully. "You and your stupid genes."
I just laugh as Dr. Sam lifts up her shirt. "Now this will be a little cool." He informs her as he spreads some kind of gel under her navel. "How far along are you?"
Rachel shrugs. "Three, maybe four months."
He nods before starting the ultrasound. "Are you interested to know what you're having?"
I grin big. "Can you tell? I read in a book that sometimes you can't tell until you're five months along but sometimes you can tell as little as three."
The man just nods as Rachel's eyes are glues to the black and white screen, the blurry heart beat filling our ears for the second time. I still can't believe that we've created a baby/ "Well I can see right now. Would you like to know?"
Rachel looks at me and I just nod.
"It's a healthy baby boy."
Me and Rachel lock eyes and she kisses me softly before whispering, "I love you."
I bump my nose against hers, the biggest grin plastered over my face. "I love you more."
As perfect as right now is I know that this is only the beginning of a beautiful life and a beautiful family.
Yay! Finally an update from me! I decided to go ahead and skip a few months because as I said before this story is about Faberry raising a baby and not just Rachel being pregnant. Yes, they're having a boy & although some of you may be disappointed I hope you keep reading because it will a lot of fun. Next chapter will be fluff & smut & picking out boy names so if you have any suggestions please I would love to hear it. I should be updating either Monday or Tuesday. Review... & I'll put A LOT of smut in the next chapter ;)
